1796, the real core wealthy family (Part 1)
Tang Xiao looked at the proud matriarch in front of him, smiled lightly, and said, "You know my conditions, Mrs. Sonya."
"You want the Tag family to betray the Galactic Empire. This is simply impossible. Compared with the Tag family, my life is not worth mentioning." Sonya Tag said sternly: "Even if I really die like this, what will happen to me?"
If the family is handed over to the eldest son Orman Tagg, the maximum loss he will cause cannot be greater than the loss caused by the family betraying the empire and supporting the Dawn Principality - because that would mean complete destruction."
"You seem to have no confidence in yourself, your family, or me..." Tang Xiao said calmly.
The result of her refusal is normal and expected. After all, the Tag family is no better than the Ulan family of Rendili Interstellar Power Company. The latter is already an outcast of the Galactic Republic and has begun to be squeezed out of the Republic.
The core of power.
But the Tag family is different. This family is deeply rooted and has a deeper heritage than the Ulan family. It has been loyal to the Galactic Republic and the Galactic Empire for a long time. What's more, they have no internal or external troubles. With their strength, they are almost
It is certain that he will enter the core of power of the Galactic Empire and hold the most critical position.
How could such a family betray the Galactic Empire?
Therefore, he just said this and did not expect the Tagg family to betray him.
Sonya Tag's expression was slightly pitiful, and she said: "Perhaps you would think that the Principality of Dawn has gained the upper hand many times in the war with the Galactic Republic, and even repelled the huge fleet led by Cassio, then the Principality of Dawn has the upper hand.
Next, will we still have the same advantage over the Galactic Empire?"
"I'd like to hear your opinion, madam." Tang Xiao said.
Sonja Tagg put on her clothes elegantly, and the noble temperament revealed inadvertently by her movements exuded a mature charm. Then she slowly walked to the other side, poured herself a glass of wine, and returned to sit on the sofa.
He took a sip and then said: "In the previous war, the Galactic Republic only mobilized less than one-tenth of its strength."
Tang Xiao's expression was as usual. He was familiar with the plot of "Star Wars" and naturally knew this matter very well.
"The Galactic Republic was dragged into the war in a hurry." Sonya Tag took another sip of wine. She seemed to be very interested in this dry red wine. "We almost got Count Dooku in the morning.
After the secession agreement was signed on the planet Geonosis, the war started in the afternoon. Before that, even though Palpatine promulgated the "Military Creation Act" after the conflict on the planet Naboo ten years ago, we actually also
I don’t take it seriously at all.”
Tang Xiao nodded, he knew that Sonja was talking about the Clone Wars from the perspective of those wealthy nobles.
"The Grand Army of the Republic has been established, but considering the financial situation of the Galactic Republic, it is simply impossible to afford such a huge military expenditure. And Palpatine has not put pressure on us, because we have already stated that we will support him...
...What he is really putting pressure on are those disobedient planets and disobedient parliamentarians." Sonya Tagg continued, "So, is the Galactic Republic poor? It is really poor. They can't even purchase one more ship.
Battleships have to hold meetings to discuss. But so what? You should know that the entire war, the expenses of our Tagg family were not even comparable to the birthday party I held last year."
Tang Xiao frowned slightly. He knew that the Galactic Republic was corrupt, rigid, and lacked power, but he really didn't expect that the Galactic Republic would reach such a state.
"If we really want to support a war, after the "Military Creation Act" and ten years of preparation for war, the Republic's warships of various types will exceed one million!" Sonya Tag said in a deep voice, "If
If that's the case, Count Dooku's so-called separatism will not last more than a month."
However, she also smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "But this is impossible to happen. Each of us has our own concerns and considerations, and we must not give our precious power to the Galactic Republic. The organization of the Galactic Republic
, which fundamentally cuts off this possibility. Neither the Republic Government nor the Parliament has any binding force on us. Moreover, the separatist commotion is not bad, it just stimulates the market and consumption in this backwater of the galaxy. And...
…war……"
The smile at the corner of Sonja Tag's mouth became a little unpredictable, "The war has given us countless opportunities... As long as we hold high the banner of war, we can do whatever we want. Tag's company's output value increased during the two and a half years of the war.
1.2%. To give you an intuitive comparison - in two and a half years, Tagge Company earned a star sector."
Tang Xiao looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. Standing here, she was so beautiful and so weak. He only needed to reach out and hold her gently to kill her. However, she was so powerful.
, she only needs to say a word, and thousands of planets will operate according to her will, and countless resources and materials will flow for her ideas.
Like the Ulan family, this is the heritage and domineering power of the oldest wealthy aristocracy in the galaxy!
However... Although Tang Xiao didn't show it, he was full of ridicule in his heart. The Galaxy Empire would be the era when they reached their peak, but it was also the beginning of their fall into the abyss.
They are powerful, but also corrupt.
Underneath that extremely solid shell is a mass of decayed crumbs, vulnerable to a single blow.
Sonya Tag took a deep breath and took another sip of wine, with a charming blush on her face. "We know all this, and Palpatine also knows it. And, you know why we support Palpatine."
Patin?"
She leaned on the back of the sofa, looking a little lazy, "Because we are all tired...tired of playing democratic games with those impoverished outer-ring stars... We are strong, rich, smart, superior, and those in the outer-ring
What qualifications does the primitive planet have to talk to us on an equal footing? A member of the Environmentalist Party? Hahahahahaha..."
Taking advantage of this hint of drunkenness, Sonja Tagg laughed, "Before the Speaker election, we just crossed our fingers lightly. At that time, the leader of the ring faction members, Orn Fried Tagg, immediately gave up on him for a long time.
The so-called belief that he has always insisted on... because in front of us, he deeply knows how insignificant the planet Rynos he represents... is. Hehehehehe..."
Sonja Tagg stood up again, went to the wine cabinet, and poured herself a full glass of red wine: "The system of the Galactic Republic allows us to have such a powerful power, but cannot use it. We are... tired of it."
